CATHY HSIAO
Born in New York and raised by a Falun Dafa Buddhist mother, Cathy Hsiao grew up between the US and Taiwan. She holds an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a BA from the University of California, Berkeley, and is the recipient of a New Artist Society Merit Fellowship. Hsiao creates auto-ethnographic installations that use the scale of the personal-botanical as a space to approach larger cultural and ecological questions of identity and environment. She has exhibited at the Carrie Secrist gallery, the Chicago Artist Coalition, and the DePaul Art Museum.
